Thunder rumbled in the sky, like a furious titan. Every time the lightning struck, I would glanced briefly to catch the images I have been seeing in the storm.

Brief.

For a moment, it flashed in my sight along with the blinding lights. The next moment, it is gone along with it. But every time I look, I see two giants wrestling in the sky.

The next time it came, I felt a pull at the sleeve of my dress, and bends to see Christian keeping his eyes away from the sky.

  • Reclaiming What's Mine    Chapter 106: A new era: The Lyon Empire

    (Omniscient POV)Inside the conference room, shareholders sat stiffly, tense, back straight like a hammer would descend on them if they slouched. Dominic moved in his seat, the swivel chair giving him the freedom to turn from side to side. But the more he did, the more the people around him stiffened, with sweaty foreheads and hands that couldn't sit still.His lips curved into a faint smile, and watching the event life from the Acting CEO’s office which Diana had left moments ago, Roman scoffed. “ Cocky b*stard! No doubt you're enjoying the attention.” He thought, and turned the second the door creaked.“ Mr. Hill…Sullivan.” The Acting CEO called, unsure of how to address him. Roman gave him a gentle not, with a faint smile that stayed up long enough to help the man calm down.“ Would you like to join us? We have begun?”He shook his head. “ I am not here for that. There is an important announcement that will be made today. I'm here to make sure it happens.”He nodded in understandi

  • Reclaiming What's Mine    Chapter 105: Surrounded, yet lonely

    (Diana)I checked my wristwatch for the umpteenth time. And paced, like it would make the time to jump to the schedule. I woke up early. Right about the time before the birds ever sang. Had a light breakfast and subsequently emptied my stomach in the toilet. Three times now.It's not the food.The house feels empty without the Nostre couple around. The walls whisper. Judging eyes follow me everywhere I turn, and from the heated gaze of the two guards I have been intimate with, I know they blame me when I'm not watching. Once the dawn chorus began, my heart sank. “ How do I do this alone?” My bones crack within. My muscles twitch restlessly, and my feet hasn't stayed without motion for a minute.I'm nervous. The kind that gets you sweaty, makes you check the time always, while getting uncomfortable the closer you got to the moment. I fan myself and run my fingers through my hair. Halfway I remembered I had just had it done yesterday and this rough handling would damage the curls.

  • Reclaiming What's Mine    Chapter 104: Price to pay

    (Hazel)Dressed in a high-low olive dress, I sat through the entire proceeding, watching my sister show support for the couple that has torn us apart. I did not shift in discomfort. I watched. Last night, I had dreamt of the obvious. She was helping my enemies. I did not expect to see her in court but I came prepared to counter her. Our eyes rarely met, and when they did, the glow of spite in her eyes made me blink. There was something in her eyes. Laid back, but there. It roamed in the flicker of her eyes. In the stretch of the muscles on her face. It wasn't jealousy.It was hate. So raw and unfiltered. Wild and untamed.Lying beneath her lenses. I could feel it. Diana blames me for something, and whatever it is, it's not casual.Adrift, I heard her name and turned in the direction of the voice. She got up and walked into the box. What happened after the oat, had my stomach churning.“ These are all lies. Lies targeted at breaking my family and turning me against the wonderful p

  • Reclaiming What's Mine    Chapter 103: Anathema

    Muted, I stared at nothing in particular. Not their faces. Not the food I had found served, waiting for me. I blanked. “I played right into her trap,” I thought, getting up to leave, but she called me back. “ Not so fast, Diana. I am not done here.” She said, dropped her cutlery and rose from her seat.“ You Sullivans think you have the real power. You think too much about yourselves. Meanwhile, you all are figureheads controlled by the person you least expect. At that moment, I wished I had come down with my phone, but then I remembered that I had attached the recorder Hazel had disabled under my own end of the table. My usual spot on the dining. I reached out and pressed a button that starts it. I hadn't tested if it still works, but I prayed it would.“ I presume since my husband and I are just some average couple, you must have thought yourself so lucky that you have never asked yourself how you got connected to Mr. Sullivan.” She continued with a contented smile. Calm. Too cal

  • Reclaiming What's Mine    Chapter 102: Stripped by a father

    “ You have got to be kidding me!” I thought and flounced inside. Stripped to her underwear, the woman who claims to be my mother is sitting on the edge of the bed, waiting for the door to shut again.Startled, she dove for the sheets and struggled with it before she successfully covered her chest down to her thighs.“ Diana, what are you doing here?”“ What am I doing here?” I repeated to myself, and shrugged. “ I was looking for you.” I said and turned to get a good look of the man behind me. The one who had made me feel so good an hour ago that I already thought of having him over tonight. He's wearing protection, and so is the man beside him. I look down at the floor and see torn sachets of condoms everywhere, and on the cupboard was a container I recognised so well.“ Enhancements? Seriously?” I quizzed no one in particular, and turned to face the one behind me. “ Have you no shame at all? Mother and daughter in one day? How morally gray are you?”He blurted, “ come on, you both

  • Reclaiming What's Mine    Chapter 101: Lawsuit and secrets

    “ A law suit?”“ Yes, princess. I thought about it deeply before doing it. I warned them to come clean, or I will meet them in court. I have broken a promise before. I do not intend to start now,” Madeline replied, flipping through a bridal magazine like she has got a wedding to prepare.“ Are you sure that now's the best time to do this? It could wait until Piper's funeral…”“ No, princess. I cannot appear before Piper to say goodbye and have nothing to give him as a parting gift. He has always wanted you to reclaim your birthright and for the Sullivans to face the consequences of their crimes against Roman. Proving it in court is the first step.“And it's the only way I can show my face at his funeral. So, let me do it. No offense that you're a Sullivan, but that family name needs to be brought to justice. And it has to be done while their witch of a granny breathes.”She inhales sharply and closed the magazine. Dropping it by the side, she crossed her legs, her spotless white turtl

    He blinked severally, taken by surprise. I waited for his yes, until panic set into my heart. " What if he says no?"On one hand, I thought of his grandmother. I might never fully tell the height of her influence over him, but they're relatives. He might give in if she protests against my marriage

  • Reclaiming What's Mine    Chapter 68: Let's get married. I do not want to wait anymore

    (Roman)For every time I failed to reach her, my mind blanked. Then it swirled inside, like I was going to burst from within. I hate it. Yet, I can't blame her.I stepped out of the office and strutted towards the elevator. A familiar scent wafted into my nostrils. I scrunched my nose, eyes narrowe

    I watched her reaction. We are completely detached, but still on the bed. He wants to speak with her and he sounds urgent. Somewhere in my mind, I prayed she wouldn't agree." Sorry about that," she returned to my arms and buried her head." Aren't you going to return the call?" I asked, just to be
